    Thanks to the ladies at the door for moving our table of 7 forward by an hour last night even though the restaurant was packed. It made a huge difference to our evening as the kids were all knackered.

    What's the point reserving a table when you've to wait over 15 minutes over your booking time to be seated? There's no seating whilst you have to wait and kids aren't allowed in their bar area so we were left to hang around a very cramped gift shop area and having to constantly move to let staff past. I suffer with a disability and standing for even a short period can exacerbate my illness and I was never asked if I was ok to stand. The order was taken and the drink order was wrong, food order was missing the onion rings and we were asked if we still wanted them midway through our meal. Food was well below average and overpriced and the noise levels were off-putting and may be causing an issue with the order taking. Safe to say that'll be the last time I eat in the Hard Rock cafe and will be ringing the restaurant next time I make a reservation.
